Alright Kiddos...officially tomorrow it is NOVEMBER...can you believe that?? Now I provide this agenda for you so YOU can practice what needs to get done to make the process that much faster!!! So please make sure you do your homework and practice and relax a little. Wash your hands, cough in your arms, take vitamins...you know the drill. You need to give your everything at practice!! YOU CAN DO THIS...Why?? BECAUSE YOU ARE CHAMPIONS...and believe me you don't have to win ANY award to become a CHAMPION...A champion to me means giving your all, pushing yourself, being a good team member and a good person/friend, and LOVING what you are doing!! SO without further adieu...here is your week!!

Monday- Running Everything. Going on in Dance. The goal is to be finished on Wednesday with dance. Please go over the sections from where you ended to what you know of the routine...so you will finish when you chaine step step big LEAP. BREATHE because you can get through all of this.

Tuesday- Run everything. Military:) We are starting to clean the BEGINNING section. So from Beginning section-straddle/headstands. Now...we have gone over this section. YOU NEED TO FALL ASLEEP listening to the beginning and NAILING those fast arms. After we have gone over the beginning we are going to jump to the Kick Line Section. I would love it if we could get through that entire Kick Line Section!!! We can DO THIS...it is all in your hands, so practice please!!

Wednesday- Not running everything. Same as Monday...Lets get DANCE done:) woot woot

Thursday- Run everything. Kick Day. We will go over what you went over last week and we will go on. I think we can get pretty far in Kick so we are just going to go to town Thursday with Kick:)

Friday- Edge all morning long. We will go over it and then head out to the field (DRESS WARM). PLEASE work these sections on your own so we don't have to spend time on them...SLOW IT down and work the coupe section (arms and feet) and the kick at the end where you throw your arms down:)
HALFTIME- Not sure what time the game is. You will be wearing our Black dresses with the blue strip. We will hand those out the day of the game. Please make sure that you have:
1. Warm-Ups (and warm clothes for the game)
2. YOUR own shoes (NO TOMS)
3. Jersey Shirt
4. Neck and Wrist Jewels
5. Sequin Hair Piece from the first halftime
6. Tan Tights

...hot like a pistol...

I want you to watch this AMAZING video. Such an inspirational story!! I just love it...makes me cry...makes me so excited.

"Everybody just wants a SHOT"
Here is the video...let it run for a min and then it will work!!


I love it at 2:27 when he is put in and you can just see how FOCUSED he is and I LOVE LOVE LOVE 3:10 when it seems as if not only him, but the school was in sync:) LOVE IT and my favorite is when they say " He was UNSTOPPABLE"!!

And here is an AMAZING motivational speech!! Here is the video...this guy is FIRED UP!! He is so passionate it is hard to hear what he is saying, but man does it make me want to CONQUER the World!! If you aren't pumped after this...talk to me:) Below is the speech in text. The text is more in depth and is really good!!


I will conquer what has never been conquered. Defeat will not be in my creed. I will believe where all those before me have doubted. I will always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor and respect of my team. I have trained my mind and now my body will follow!

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

I will acknowledge the fact that I am an elite warrior who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by any means at my disposal. I accept the fact that my team expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than our opponents. Never shall I fail my comrades. I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be. One hundred percent and more.

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well trained warrior. My heart and my soul will be the fuel to carry my body when my limbs are to weary. I will never falter, I will never lose focus as long as there is hope in my mind and my heart still beats. I will never give in to the evil that is weakness and I will fight that evil with my dying breath.

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

Energetically will I meet my enemies, no one will challenge me, none will stop me from my goal. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Champion’s word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall at the hands of my enemy and under no circumstances will I ever surrender.

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

Readily will I display the discipline and strength required to fight on to my objective and I will complete my mission. I will rise when I fallen. I will rip the heart from my enemy and leave it beating on the ground. My enemy need not fear me but he will respect me and if he does not. I will make him respect me with all that I have to give.

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

History will remember my name and he will not have to be kind. For I will have denied his criticisms and put in my own praise, No one will define me, no one will tell me what I can achieve, none will say I have not given all I have to give and none will take my glory.

WHO AM I? …. I AM A CHAMPION!!!

I am so incredibly proud of you Ladies and I know you are tired and sore and burnt out!! YOU CAN DO THIS! We will succeed...this is why we wake up everyday... to be successful and push ourselves in EVERY single thing we do. I want you to be the best kind of person at all times. SOOO on that note, please REST tomorrow and please go through our routines. We will conquer all of this!!!

I just want our Thriller routine to be very very memorable!!! I want people to be talking about it for weeks? Does that sound like a plan to you? So your costumes need to be SO FUN and CREATIVE...for Friday you need lots of hair products, blood, make-up EVERYTHING!! Please bring your own stuff and then you all can share, but everyone contribute please:) If you have any full length mirrors you can bring please do...WE WILL GET READY TOGETHER we just have to go into the locker room because the play is going on:) We will be doing our Halloween Party right after school for about 45 min-hour and then start getting ready. We have to kind of HURRY to get ready so we can go out a little before the game to SCARE the audience!! This is such a fun routine....PLEASE come Thursday prepared with Thriller:)

Military videos are up....all I can say is that this routine is hard and with all of your working hard and together we are going to be pretty UNSTOPPABLE!!!

PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOU READ THIS BY ANSWERING THIS QUESTION: What are you going to do on your little break tomorrow????

xoxo to the moon and back!!

This team is something INCREDIBLE....use all of your energy and make every practice count!! No regrets Ladies...you are too dang talented to not PUSH yourself to the max every single day...and that goes for drill, school, and LIFE!!

I leave you with this...I am trying to find the words of the speech. I know its football, but apply it to US...

"NEXT YEAR WILL BE DIFFERENT...NEXT YEAR IS HERE...THE TIME IS NOW...ALL OF THE RUNNING...WAS FOR THIS MOMENT...THE TIME IS NOW AND DON'T LET ANYONE IN THIS ROOM UNDERESTIMATE THIS MOMENT". "BIG MOMENTS BRING ABOUT PRESSURE...AND PRESSURE DOES 1 OF 2 THINGS TO PEOPLE...FOR US THE GREAT IT MAKES US FOCUS...IF THINGS AREN'T GOING YOUR WAY AND IT WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE IT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE, THATS ALRIGHT FOCUS...PRESSURE FOCUS AND GET IT DONE...EVERY MAN SHOULD MAKE A PROMISE TO EACH OTHER TO GET THE JOB DONE...I WILL GET THE JOB DONE...CAN YOU PROMISE EACH OTHER AND GO OUT HERE AND GET THE JOB DONE...YOU CAN WRITE YOU HISTORY AND DON'T LET ANY MAN GET IN YOUR WAY..."


LOVE IT & LOVE YOU XOXO LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! Please tell me you read this and you are READY to make history!!! I want you to look at Page 6 of you tube and watch state...YOU WERE SO GOOD...You are EVEN BETTER right now.

This day will go down in SilverLine history, but it is up to all 17 of you to make that happen...Read it...it has a little Meghan spin on it of course:)
"Well I want you to understand somethin'. To me, being perfect is not about that how many kicks you do out there. It's not about winning. It's about you and your relationship to yourself and your family and your friends.

Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didn't let them down, because you told them the truth. And that truth is that you did everything that you could. There wasn't one more thing that you could've done.

Can you live in that moment, as best you can, with clear eyes and love in your heart? With joy in your heart?

If you can do that SILVERLINE, then you're perfect.

I want you to take a moment. And I want you to look each other in the eyes. I want you to put each other in your hearts forever, because forever's about to happen here in a day and a half."


Lets make this so special ladies! Please let me know you read this entire post forwards and backwards by texting me this: UNSTOPPABLE

xoxo to the moon and back!!
